Candidates appearing for the All India Engineering Entrance Exam (AIEEE) will for the first time this year be able to access their answer sheets after results are out.

The offline AIEEE exam will be conducted on Sunday, with around 10lakh candidates across the country set to appear in the paper-pencil format. The AIEEE determines admission to more than 26,000 seats at the National Institutes of Technology and central and state engineering colleges.

"We will make the answer books available after results," said Vineet Joshi, chairperson of the Central Board of Secondary Education, which conducts the exam.

Last August, the Supreme Court ruled that an aggrieved student could make an RTI application and access the answer books to see how marks were awarded to him.
